Across the nation, Hispanic health organizations are shining the spotlight on the health issues facing their communities. Led by doctors, nurses, public-health specialists, mental-health professionals, and community activists, the groups have pulled people together to improve the health of Latino families. Through education and outreach, they are building a national health-care agenda for the diverse ethnic group. At the same time, they work at the grassroots level to encourage people to practice healthier lifestyles.
